OnePlus 6 Red Edition will go on its first sale today. The new variant was launched earlier this month. The Red Edition of OnePlus 6 will be available from Rs 39,999. With the new variant in place, OnePlus will now have a total of four variants on sale. During the official launch of the device in India, the company had also unveiled an Avengers special edition OnePlus 6. However, the special edition was discontinued after a few sales.
